i have a 75 gallon tank, 9 fish, live rock, live sand, crabs, and two shrimp. i lost the starfish today after my second day of dosing formalin 3 after seeing ick beginning on three fish three days ago. i already see the spots getting better. my question is this, the bottle says use until better. to me, this makes no sense since we know that they have a life span of three weeks. wouldnt it be smart to just use for four weeks to know that i fully kicked the ick?????? will i lose the crabs and shrimp as well from the medication????? thanks, brian.
